Rutgers bars unvaccinated student from attending virtual classes
A New Jersey student has said he is barred from taking classes at Rutgers University because he has not been vaccinated — even though he is only studying virtually from home.
How's this kid going to get a religious or medical waiver? I don't think "not finding Covid to be scary" because of your age group would qualify under most definitions.
please detail for me, the risks of a 20-something getting it, her personal risks and him spreading it from online classes? Thanks in advance.

Not here to argue but this kid - along with others - I'm sure has contact with other students - and other friends - and could end up spreading it and I would assume that's what Rutgers in trying to eliminate. I don't know the exact risks and don't have answers. All I can do is follow the advice of science and our medical field which says get vaccinated. Just that simple. This Delta BS is blowing up all over the country and it really didn't need to come to that.
The real problem is people believing everything the government and media feed them
so, vaccinated people who contract it can't spread it?

Of course they can but the point here is hospitalizations and DEATHS - our biggest issues right now. The comparison between the vaccinated and non-vaccinated is not in the same universe. I knew the vaccine wasn't !00% - very few are but I knew it would severely limit the damage if I did get it. Not that hard and I'll let it go here.so, vaccinated people who contract it can't spread it?
Coronavirus can spread among vaccinated people, so officials urge cautious Labor Day
“One thing is for sure: Vaccinated people can get infected, and they can transmit to other vaccinated people,” Los Angeles County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer said. “Vax-on-vax transmission has happened.”
Ther is a reason why people are rioting in Germany, UK, France, and Australia.
We agree 100%. Biggest a-holes out there. But I will follow science and the medical field who know far more than any of us on this board
Deaths, age 17 and below, is at 400. 3,000 if you look at 30 and below. The vast majority of these had a comorbidity or were obese. It is tougher to track hospitalizations but the press had been caught, several times, taking stats our of context or simply lying (this weekend, there was a report that 70% of calls into an OD hotline were based on Ivermectin when it turned out to be 2%.).
Following the money I don't trust science.
He can spread it to others virtually? Wow, that’s some virus.
It sure is. Basically it comes down to a business dictating their own way of doing things - they have every right. Didn't always care for some of my companies rules but if I didn't like it, I always had the choice to move on
This past weekend with the college football scene was great because it showed that many, many people understand the risks of not only this virus, but also of life in general, and are willing to get on with living rather than worry about dying. I really believe that this past weekend will do a lot to kick society in the ass about moving forward, because this virus isn't going anywhere any time soon, regardless of vaccines, masks, lockdowns, etc.; it's just something that people are going to have to learn to live with probably for the rest of our lives.
it will be interesting to see how many games ended as spreaders. But there are riots worldwide on this. It isn't just a USA issue. People, in the majority, are fed up and done. I went to Chipotle last night after golfing with my daughter. Walking in, there was a sign saying masks were required. I went back to the car to get masks. When I walked in, out of probably 60 or so people, I was the only one wearing a mask.
That's been my experience too with even places that are kindly requesting masks, like Giant Eagle. I have not worn a mask in a public place sine early June, and haven't been asked to wear one by any private business in which I have patronized.
maybe he should transfer to Indinia
Would he be spreading it to others not vaccinated? at this point baring a medical condition preventing it there is really no sound medical reason not to be vaccinated so if you aren't and get COVID that is really on you at this time.
Did everyone at the Rutgers game wear a mask? If not, then they have some inconsistency in how their dictating their rules. And are they self funded? If not, then they’re not a business.
. He's an excellent golfer and athlete in general - well, let me rephrase that - was an excellent golfer.
I’m all for vaccination, just not forced vaccination. Let people make their own decisions, keep the government and politicians out of things as much as possible. Same with masks, if you want to wear one, wear one and if not, don’t.Look, not here to argue and force my opinion on anyone - I speak about the vaccine from experience.
Not sure if it was this board - maybe another - but I've stated in the past I'm extremely close with my grandson. Probably closer than I am with any of my children. We golf quite a bit - 20 to 25 times a year - and even at 71 I can still give him a run for his money - well, occasionally
He caught Covid quite a few months back an was healthy at the time but was not vaccinated. He had problems breathing and still does. Physically, he's a shell of what he use to be and at times just has absolutely no energy - which just kills me to see. I'm sick to my stomach about it and really worried about what the long term effects can be, especially on his heart and lungs. Really, no one knows at this point. And how many of us know people who was originally was anti-vaccine and saw - or lost - a loved one affected - or even die from it and change their mind and get it
So please, please people, give medicine and science a chance and get the vaccine. Is it perfect, NO. But it's the best we have to fight this horrible disease right now. I know many people like to stand their ground on issues, but this thing is kicking our asses. I really feel bad for the overworked medical field. They sure don't deserve this - especially when many of the recent hospitalizations and deaths were preventable
I think they’re the right decision….of course they’ve had years of results to judge them, not a couple of months.
Being forced to do something doesn’t make you socially responsible.
As do vaccinated people catch and spread.....next agenda item....the student was at home.....a bunch of what ifs.....WOW
